THE THEORIES

This is a short theory (nothing to do with Pj being Rj).

What if somehow, Patrick Jane knew that Rj was going to blow up his house (if what Rigsby says in the EP07 trailer is true). He purposely put the 3 people with the 3 dot tattoo against the wall, knowing who they were, so they would be killed? Pj may just be baiting Rj into thinking he's got him where he wants him, when actually it's the opposite?

There is also a big reason this may be wrong also. If Bertram does die, it would be HUGE news. The CEO of the CBI dying would be big on the news. If he does die, he would need to be replaced. That's where I am thinking LaRoche will make his big comeback.

Be sure to understand the meaning of the Blake poem in its entirety. The poem is the very basic theological treatise so common of the time asking "how can a good creator create such an evil, fearful thing?" I know it's not supposed to be PJ, but I really do see an evil split personality of him inspiring devotion. But then, its probably Bertram. :(

It can be anyone because is a TV show, but the only one that would make sense is Jane himself, kind of Fight Club style.

What if the real RJ actually did kill PJs family but PJ actually found the guy and just had a mental break killed him and took on the persona of RJ and everything we see and hear of RJ is fight club style for jane at least bc he never talks to anyone else except for jane and you only "see" RJ when jane is around

This is what I am thinking at the moment.

I was the last accuser of Patrick Jane that actually got a positive result  LOL I am proud.

So where are we now.

I am starting to think that a member of the team will definitely end up being part of the tiger tiger group. The tattoo is quite well spread in law enforcement. I think RJ will be part of this tiger group. However Nobody in the group will know or suspect that he is RJ. This person will also be known to Bret Styles.

RJ is definitely not on the 7 suspects list. I am completely sure of that.

The biggest clue I have read as to the identity of RJ is from an Interview from the actress that plays Lisbon. Here is the quote.... which is the biggest clue yet when asked what she thought of the choice of RJ

"I was surprised, and had I been Red John, I would have been equally surprised,"

So..... if RJ turned out to be Lisbon..... 98% of the people reading this would be surprised.

She's not, by the quote, but RJ is very much someone that we don't suspect, hence we are going to be surprised.

So who would surprise you?

It is highly possible its a member of the team. Unlikely but possible all the same. I would say Cho would be my choice. What can be done with him when Rigsby and Van Pelt leave? RJ may not necessarily be killed, he may just escape. Cho killing VP and Rigsby would be quite shocking. Also he is an interesting character that we don't know that much about. Other then he does everything, by the book.

I am still hoping for the PJ = RJ swerve, be great to see where they went with it, if it isn't cancelled by then.

Afterall they could have kept Timothy Carter as RJ and continued the series focusing on other aspects. That would have been a believable conclusion. They had to do a bit of digging to get out of that one. Must be for a good reason :)

After watching the sixth I think that Red John is actually Patrick Jane !



 It also seems that there is organizition of the three men with tattoos , it seems that the password they are Taigr Taigr and this explains all the episodes in which he was Red John, who we thought we said Red John will meet with Patrick or speak to him by telephone or do some crimes if we thought that Red John is Patrick Jane is the one who heads the organization in secret but probably the crimes followers who do not know him personally or they have been brainwashed through hypnosis ,

Looks saw Patrick crazy this episode? ?And glances suspected him ?
They are in a secret organization Yes!But Red john not one of them !
The fear seems to them!

and after season 3 e24 this is what happened:

But to be a Red John real and who had killed the family of Patrick is Timothy Carter, he seemed confident of himself and is not afraid and after killing  by Jane,

Jane is sick, probably he is the continued belief that the Red John is still alive and that he is not the one who died and looked series madness , suspicion and making followers ! ! ! ! ! !

 there will be  a way to justify the fact that Patrick Jane is Reid John , and wait for it !
